Last year an international panel of experts granted the BEST COLLABORATION AWARD for the first time. The first BCA 20110 was designed to reward the best example of collaboration between partners from the creative industries sector and another from a more traditional industry focussing on innovative practices beyond traditional business relationships as well as alliances with exceptional results.

The BEST COLLABORATION AWARD 2011 is dedicated to outstanding collaborations between partners from creative industries and knowledge institutions, science and applied research.

Companies can apply for the BEST COLLABORATION AWARD from the field of: Advertising, Architecture, Arts and Antique Markets, Crafts, Design, Communication Design, Fashion Design, Film, Video, Photography, Software, Computer Games and Electronic Publishing, Music and the Visual and Performing Arts, Publishing, Television and Radio as well as representatives of knowledge institutions, science and applied research from the EU-NORTH SEA REGION.

The overall winners – juged by an international jury - will be announced at the Award Ceremony in Bremen, Germany on the 24th of November 2011.

There the winners can present their winning project, their services or their outstanding innovative and promising ideas, which they have developed together with their business partners in unusual ways to an international audience.

The application documents are available at: www.creative-city-challenge.net. Deadline for application: 31st of August, 2011.
